Special Needs Dentistry

At James Aldridge Jr. DDS, we strive to accommodate patients of all needs. We understand that some patients struggle in a normal dental setting due to physical, medical, or cognitive conditions, and we do our best to care for them on their own comfort level. Our dentist is highly experienced and invested in providing special needs dentistry.

Special needs dentistry is focused on providing dental care for patients with specific healthcare needs. This includes patients with autism, mental illness, and cognitive delays. Many of these individuals thrive under the care of a dental professional who understands their needs, concerns, and limitations, and can adapt the environment accordingly. Dr. James N. Aldridge Jr. has undergone additional training in special needs dentistry to provide a dental resource for patients who cannot visit the average dental office, and our friendly team ensures the atmosphere in the office is calm and reassuring.

In addition to providing special needs services in office, our dentist works with certain group homes in the area to provide dental care onsite for patients who cannot leave the facility for a dental appointment. We invite you to contact our office at 304-523-3666 to learn more about special needs dentistry in Huntington, West Virginia, and how it can benefit you or a loved one.
